but...but....but..............

We've all had them...those moments when the world as you know it is just twisted a bit...like almost everything you thought was right, was all wrong.  Mr. Corona knows that when you listen to Credence Clearwater Revival's Bad Moon Rising...he's really singing "there's a bathroom on the right"...well, we just listened to Van Morrison's version of "Sitting in limbo"...WTF!!!!.....he's NOT singing "I'm sitting in limbo"....(my world tilts)...he's singing "I'm cleaning windows"...say in ain't so Joe!  How many other things are out there like this?  No....this is bad enough...there is no gawd...black is white...James Bond is gay....ok, I made that one up.  But really...WTF?  The other thing is, we bought a $20 speaker system that plugs into the computer....and that made it so clear...well, I'm just pissin' myself over this...all that time I spent big bucks on stereo, and the speakers were lying to me...BASTARDS!

Hmmm...I feel better now.

So, Da Nang...kind of an armpit really...sort of an industrial giant just waking up...tourists aren't courted here, they're ignored.  I know what you're saying, and no, it's not just us!  Big city market....
 ...big city waterfront...
  ...way off in the distance you see this cool bridge...
...I don't know....I've never really been anywhere, but this kind of looks like Turkey...F'n Van Morrison...screwed me up...so we decided to get some CULTCHA...Mr. Corona got CULTCHA now!  Museum...no, that's not a Da Nang bar, it's real...see...
...and they have CULTCHA kind of stuff there...here's their version of Dumbo...
...and this one...thought I was with the peelers...Nick, buddy...this one's for you!
...and there were some serious statues there...


...but these last three really got me....


...did I mention we've decided to slum for a while...we're drinkin' 15y/o Balvenie, SINGLE BARREL scotch...hell, it's an industrial city...whataya spect!

  1. OH FOR PEATS SAKE!
    NOTHING YOUNGER THAN 21 YEAR OLD WHISKY SHOULD EVER TOUCH THE LIPS OF A LOVELY LADY LIKE CASSANDRA....SLUMMING YOU SAY? SOUNDS LIKE WHEN YOU CAMPED IN THE TURNIP PATCH AND A COW STUCK ITS HEAD IN YOUR TENT AND WOKE YOU UP BY LICKING SOME UNMENTIONABLE PROBOSCIS, THEN GAGGING!
